Ooh, yeah lucky me being in Italy they're getting a couple in in the shop a little ways away. Word is they're probably gonna release this one to the states, but not until maybe 2014

That pic was snapped by my brother in Austin TX dealship last weekend, so must already be here. I wasn't aware the RC8 was ever imported, buddy that's a KTM mechanic told me they were not gonna import them, seems like they started in 2009 in very small numbers. Again, they can't hardly get any dirt bikes from KTM for some reason.

[QUOTE=t4daddy;6043335]That's bad ass, will it ever make it here? Their last super bike didn't, can't hardly even get there dirt bikes any longer. On a different note, that Duke reminds me of this little gem.

The RC8's and the R models made it over but it was in small numbers. There is one now on the hsv craigslist. The dirt bikes are easy to find, Shoals has quite a few thirteen models but i would drive to Performance in Cookeville TN to buy. Really good guys up there.

And yes that bike is sweet! I had a Super Duke for a while and loved it. Being a dirt bike guy i felt right at home. I rode an RC8 at a track day and felt out of place on it.

Where in N. Alabama are you, Shoals is where my buddy works, (the one that told me they couldn't lay there hands on any bikes) must have been a between model thing. My wife works for the guy that owns Shoals (Long Lewis Ford) so I get pretty good deals there.
